To be honest, YouTube would be the hardest thing to replace. And if they ever stream ads from the same URLs as content I don't see a blocker being overly successful.

I disagree, something like Sponsorblock is working quite well already for ads embedded in the video and unless YouTube makes serious sacrifices in UX I don't see how they could prevent this.

They already do stream ads from the same urls. It's why a pihole can't block youtube ads.

But you can tell what's coming, since apps like SmartTubeNext and Revanced can skip them.

It'll probably just be a cat and mouse game, as it always has been.
